Social And Professional Factors Involved In The Evaluation Of Teachers

In the first part of the communication, we synthetically present the situation of the general culture education in the north-western part of the country. In the second part of the paper, the main objective of the research is presented: identifying the factors on which the candidates? success at the finalization in education exam depends. The success at the exam, as a dependent variable, is operationalised and quantified through the obtained grade. The following factors are taken in consideration: the candidates? specialization, graduation year, graduates? education form, the type of institutions (public or private), the county where they work, the rural or urban environment of the institution where they work, the rural or urban environment of their birthplace, civil state, sex and age. A number of 100 subjects have been investigated from Bihor County, Satu-Mare County and S?laj County. Once all indicators have been operationalized and quantified, data was statistically processed. In this way, it was possible to check the hypotheses, according to which, there are certain specializations and counties where most of the candidates come from, who achieve remarkable results at the final exam. In the same manner, the impact of the analyzed factors was studied. Finally, several social and professional factors were outlined according to the role they play in the examining process, deciphering the causes of success. The first part of the paper presents the general theoretical issue of social and cultural inequality. The analysis aims at highlighting the important role that education plays in ensuring equal opportunities for young people and diminishing social inequalities. The study highlights the important role of the teacher in ensuring students' good training and in diminishing, through this way, social and professional inequalities. Relevant information regarding education situation in schools is presented, revealing more inequalities, both between counties, urban and rural environments in each county, but also between different areas of the same county. The premises of the investigation have originated from inequalities such as those presented above. The article tries to capture the intervention of factors, such as the environment from which the teachers come, their specialization, the civil status, the year of graduation, sex, age, etc.
